Abstract:In order to ensure radiation monitoring and protection, an investigation and assessment of radiological risks that may be associated with the consumption of table waters commonly consumed in Ilorin, Nigeria, was carried out. The activity concentration level of 238U, 232Th, and 40K was determined using thallium activated 3˝×3˝ [NaI(TI)] detector connected to ORTEC 456 amplifier. The radiological risks due to the consumption of the samples were then estimated. The highest annual effective dose (AED) values were … Show more
